this was only the 2nd time making night shots so any tips,tricks and comments for those are always helpfull

Regarding your night shots; technically you've done everything right, IMHO. White Balance is OK. Low ISO? Can't figure it out. As low as possible, 100 or 50, if your machine accepts it. By movig the Aperture Value to a smaller value you avoid the star effect on the lights, but I guess you want that effect? Right?

Btw, you said this was your first DC-8? Try then to figure out where the "real" DC-8 still come and go. I mean the "real" DC-8 with the "real" engines, as we used to have them at LUX when MK Airlines was still around. That's an ear candy. ;-)
